In situ mantle cell neoplasm[1]

Definition / Description of Disease

The Latin phrase “in situ” means “in the natural or original position or place”, as per the Merriam-Webster dictionary. In normal benign lymphoid tissues, the mantle zones of lymphoid follicles are formed by naïve mature B-cells after maturation from precursor B-cells in the bone marrow. In situ mantle cell neoplasm is a pre-malignant neoplasm composed of mantle cells “in their natural position” that harbor, in addition, the t(11;14) balanced translocation characteristic of mantle cell lymphoma with the overexpression of cyclin D1 protein.


An in situ mantle cell neoplasm may precede, co-exist with, or may occur after the development of an overt mantle cell lymphoma. This pre-malignant neoplasm is more often identified in patients newly diagnosed with an overt mantle cell lymphoma in whom a retrospective examination of a prior reactive-appearing lymph node or lymphoid tissue biopsy shows the presence of in situ mantle cell neoplasm. In situ mantle cell neoplasm is only rarely diagnosed in lymph nodes diagnosed as benign or reactive lymphoid hyperplasia after biopsy for enlargement or other symptomatic causes. The diagnostic criteria for in situ mantle cell neoplasm are currently based primarily on histopathologic examination (description in the morphologic features section). The pathologic diagnosis of in situ mantle cell neoplasm requires distinguishing from two major disease entities: (1) reactive lymphoid hyperplasia, and (2) mantle cell lymphoma with a mantle zone pattern. Of note, in situ mantle cell neoplasm may co-exist with any overt mature B-cell lymphoma, including as a component of a composite lymphoma.

Synonyms / Terminology

In situ mantle cell neoplasia, term used in the revised 4th edition World Health Organization classification[2] and in the International Consensus Classification of mature lymphoid neoplasms[3]; in situ mantle cell lymphoma (historical); mantle cell lymphoma in situ (historical); mantle cell lymphoma (MCL)-like B-cells of undetermined significance[4] (historical)

Epidemiology / Prevalence

The real prevalence of in situ mantle cell neoplasm is currently unknown. The published literature for in situ mantle cell neoplasm is limited primarily to case reports, including collectively studied cases,[5] and retrospective studies of cases of reactive lymphoid hyperplasia,[5][6] lymph nodes in specimens resected for cancer,[7] and lymph nodes and other organized lymphoid tissues resected for any non-hematologic cause prior to the diagnosis of overt mantle cell lymphoma[8].

Table 1. Cohorts of tissues studied to detect in situ mantle cell neoplasm
Study cohorts for detecting in situ mantle cell neoplasm N patients studied In situ mantle cell neoplasm, N cases detected in the study
Retrospective study of cyclin D1 immunohistochemical stains in 100 consecutive cases of lymphoid hyperplasia to detect in situ mantle cell neoplasm[5] 100 0 (zero) by cyclin D1 stain[5]
100 cases of reactive hyperplasia in lymph nodes studied by conventional cytogenetics[9] 100 0 (zero) clonal chromosomal abnormalities by conventional cytogenetics[9]
Retrospective study of cyclin D1 immunohistochemical stains in reactive lymph nodes in surgical resection specimens of 131 consecutive patients with no history of lymphoma during a 3-month period[6] 131 0 (zero) by cyclin D1 stain[6]
Retrospective study of lymph nodes (> 0.5 cm size) resected with cancer in 341 consecutive patients diagnosed with colorectal (n= 201) and breast carcinoma (n= 140) during 1998-2000[7] 341 2 (0.58%) by cyclin D1 stain[7]
Retrospective study of previous resections of lymph nodes and organized lymphoid tissues due to non-hematologic indications for surgery in 126 patients with overt mantle cell lymphoma[8] 126 2 (1.58%) by cyclin D1 stain[8]
Retrospective study of all morphologically reactive lymph nodes and benign-appearing extranodal lymphoid infiltrates predating lymphoma diagnosis in patients diagnosed with overt mantle cell lymphoma[6] 37 0 (zero) cases reported with typical in situ mantle cell neoplasm by cyclin D1 stain;[6]

in 6 cases, minimal infiltration by cyclin D1 positive neoplastic mantle cells was identified at extranodal sites[6]

Clinical Features

The clinical features at presentation or diagnosis may depend on the situations in which the in situ mantle cell neoplasm is diagnosed, including as follows:

  • In a biopsy of an enlarged lymph node or extra-nodal lymphoid tissue: in biopsies performed with suspicion of a lymphoproliferative disease, in situ mantle cell neoplasm may co-exist with another mature B-cell lymphoma or with Castleman disease. Peripheral blood and/or bone marrow may be involved in addition to the histologic presence of in situ mantle cell neoplasm in lymphoid tissues.
  • In previous biopsies retrospectively examined after the diagnosis of an overt mantle cell lymphoma.
  • As an incidental finding in lymph nodes and lymphoid tissues examined for other causes, including lymph nodes in resected cancer specimens and lymphoid tissues in inflammatory conditions.
Signs and Symptoms In situ mantle cell neoplasm alone is asymptomatic and is therefore, found incidentally in lymph nodes and lymphoid tissues examined for other causes. However, since it may co-exist with an overt mantle cell lymphoma (nodal or leukemic), the signs and symptoms may vary according to the situation.

The presence of B-symptoms (weight loss, fever, night sweats), fatigue, or generalized lymphadenopathy should lead to the suspicion of an overt lymphoma.

Laboratory Findings Similarly, there should be no cytopenias or lymphocytosis due to the presence of only an in situ mantle cell neoplasm.

Nevertheless, small or even minute populations of light chain restricted B-cells may be detected in peripheral blood by flow cytometric immunophenotyping in the absence of increased peripheral blood lymphocyte counts.

In cases of composite lymphomas, flow cytometric immunophenotypic analysis of the lymph node or lymphoid tissues may show the presence of two neoplastic B-cell populations that may prompt further or retrospective histopathologic evaluation, including for cyclin D1 immunohistochemistry on tissue sections.


The individual patient-level table below (with the preceding summary) shows the variability in clinical features and outcome among 31 previously reported patients diagnosed histologically with an in situ mantle cell neoplasm, along with the background in which in situ mantle cell neoplasia arose in these patients.

  • Notably, 29% (9/31) of these in situ mantle cell neoplasm cases occurred in a background of a composite lymphoma comprised of another mature B-cell lymphoma, with follicular lymphoma (FL) being the most frequent, followed by chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), and marginal zone lymphoma (nodal and extranodal types).
  • Among the remaining 22 patients, 31.8% (7/22), 6 males and one female, developed an overt mantle cell lymphoma after 1-20 years. This development to an overt lymphoma occurred at 2y, 4y, 4y, 4y, 10y, and 20 y after a histologically diagnosable in situ mantle cell neoplasm for the initial overt mantle cell lymphoma and after 1 year for relapsed mantle cell lymphoma.
    • An additional 22.7% (5/22) received chemotherapy or radiotherapy for lymphoma.
    • An additional 9% (2/22) patients, both women, had leukemic involvement by mantle cell lymphoma and were alive with disease at long-term follow-up of 12 y and 19.5 y.
    • One additional patient (1/22, 4.5%) died at 1.3 y.
    • 27% (6/22) patients did not develop overt lymphoma at 0.08y, 0.66 y, 1 y, 3y, 5y, and 16 y follow-up.
    • Follow-up not available for one (1/22) patient.

Sites of Involvement

Nodal and extranodal: virtually any lymphoid tissue sites in the body may be involved.

Bone marrow (BM) and peripheral blood (PB) may be involved by leukemic mantle cell lymphoma in patients with a histologic diagnosis of in situ mantle cell neoplasm in a lymph node or lymphoid tissue. In those cases, BM or PB involvement by neoplastic mantle cell lymphoma cells would be considered leukemic involvement (and not “in situ mantle cell neoplasm” in PB or BM).

Morphologic Features

In situ mantle cell neoplasm is characterized by the presence of cyclin D1 positive, SOX11 positive or negative, CD5 positive or negative, CD20 positive neoplastic B-cells in unexpanded mantle zones surrounding follicle centers in lymph nodes or extranodal lymphoid tissues. Rarely, the neoplastic mantle cells may also be present in the follicle center and identified only by immunohistochemical stains. The nodal architecture is preserved and is typically reactive-appearing except for the presence of the neoplastic in situ mantle cells that are identified by immunohistochemical staining for cyclin D1. The diagnosis can be difficult or may not even be possible to render solely by hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) stain morphology.

In situ mantle cell neoplasm must be differentiated from overt mantle cell lymphoma with a mantle zone pattern. In contrast with an in situ mantle cell neoplasm, overt mantle cell lymphoma may show any of the following features: greater follicle density than in a reactive lymph node, focal obliteration of nodal architecture, focally fused mantle zones, interfollicular neoplastic mantle cell nodules, and expanded mantle zones with monotonous or densely packed neoplastic mantle cells with slight to moderately irregular nuclear contours, slightly more open nuclear chromatin, inconspicuous nucleoli and scant cytoplasm.

Notably, in mantle cell lymphoma with a mantle zone pattern, the lymph node architecture may also be preserved, as reported.[22] In those two cases, a high index of suspicion due to monotonous mantle cells with slight nuclear irregularity and the clinical history of lymphadenopathy at other sites led to a cyclin D1 stain and the accurate diagnosis of an overt mantle cell lymphoma.[22]

Immunophenotype

Immunohistochemistry for cyclin D1 is required for the diagnosis of in situ mantle cell neoplasm in virtually all cases. The neoplastic cells are CD20 positive B-cells that co-express cyclin D1.

Theoretically, cyclin D1 negative mantle cell lymphoma may also have an in situ neoplastic component but that has not yet been reported.

Neoplastic cells Positive (universal) CD20, cyclin D1
Neoplastic cells Positive (subset of cases) CD5, SOX11
Neoplastic cells Negative (universal) CD3
Neoplastic cells Negative (subset of cases) CD5, SOX11

Chromosomal Rearrangements (Gene Fusions)

The balanced translocation t(11;14)(q13;q32) is characteristic of mantle cell lymphoma and was identified in all cases of histologically identified in situ mantle cell neoplasm (whenever it was examined for in addition to the overexpression of cyclin D1 protein).

Not yet known, if any The t(11;14) is characteristic of in situ mantle cell neoplasm and overt mantle cell lymphoma in the appropriate morphology and clinical context. However, this translocation may also be present in other lymphoid neoplasms and has also been identified in healthy individuals at a lower incidence than the t(14;18) translocation in healthy individuals.[24][25][26]

Gene Mutations (SNV/INDEL)

There are numerous publications for gene mutations in overt mantle cell lymphoma. A recent systematic meta-analysis of 32 studies published during 2006 to 2019, excluding review articles, detailed the findings for gene mutations in mantle cell lymphoma by analyzing 2127 individual overt mantle cell lymphoma patients and 2173 samples that were included in the analyzed studies.[27]  These studies included the nodal and the leukemic forms of overt mantle cell lymphoma. As per this meta-analysis, in overt mantle cell lymphoma tumor or bone marrow samples at diagnosis or baseline, the most frequent genetic abnormalities occurred in the ATM (43.5%), TP53 (26.8%), CDKN2A (23.9%), CCND1 (20.2%), NSD2 (15.0%), KMT2A (8.9%), S1PR1 (8.6%), and CARD11 (8.5%) genes.[27] Aberrations in IGH (38.4%) and MYC (20.8%) were detected primarily through cytogenetic methods, also in those same tumor specimens.[27]

However, there have not yet been any studies that have examined in situ mantle cell neoplasm (without an overt lymphoma) for gene mutations.

Epigenomic Alterations

Epigenomic alterations have been studied in overt mantle cell lymphoma.[28] In situ mantle cell neoplasia has not yet been studied.

Genes and Main Pathways Involved

In those individuals without an overt lymphoma, in situ mantle cell neoplasm is often considered to be, or might be similar to being a tissue counterpart of rare circulating t(11:14) positive lymphocytes in peripheral blood. While overt mantle cell lymphoma involves dysregulated cell cycle and DNA damage response pathways, the steps of the development of an overt mantle cell lymphoma from an in situ mantle cell neoplasm are not yet understood.


Gene; Genetic Alteration Pathway Pathophysiologic Outcome
EXAMPLE: BRAF and MAP2K1; Activating mutations EXAMPLE: MAPK signaling EXAMPLE: Increased cell growth and proliferation
EXAMPLE: CDKN2A; Inactivating mutations EXAMPLE: Cell cycle regulation EXAMPLE: Unregulated cell division
EXAMPLE: KMT2C and ARID1A; Inactivating mutations EXAMPLE: Histone modification, chromatin remodeling EXAMPLE: Abnormal gene expression program

Genetic Diagnostic Testing Methods

Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) for the t(11;14) translocation is the most commonly used method, in conjunction with immunohistochemistry for the overexpression of cyclin D1 in the neoplastic mantle cells. Both FISH and immunohistochemistry may be performed on paraffin-embedded tissue sections to allow identification of the abnormalities within specific cells (neoplastic) in the histologic sections.

Conventional cytogenetics performed on involved lymphoid tissues is also used by some laboratories.[9]

Familial Forms

Overt mantle cell lymphoma has been reported to occur in families with other family members having lymphoproliferative disorders, including chronic lymphocytic leukemia. These reports are limited to small studies and case reports of overt mantle cell lymphoma, with yet unexplained or rarely explained genetic basis for the familial occurrence of overt mantle cell lymphoma in these families. Conversely, rare cases of overt mantle cell lymphoma with germline mutations have been reported but the clinical and family history are usually not available in these reported cases wherein tumor specimens were examined, with or without germline specimen analysis.

Nevertheless, an in situ mantle cell neoplasm has not been reported to occur in a familial manner or in any of the reported overt mantle cell lymphoma cases with an identifed germline alteration.

The incidence and prevalence of familial overt mantle cell lymphoma are currently unknown. Also to note is that earlier instances of familial chronic lymphoproliferative disorders that included chronic lymphocytic leukemia might have included cases of mantle cell lymphoma. Specifically, the analysis for familial risk among 153,115 Swedish patients with hematologic malignancies included 18,521 patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), including 8,043 (43.4%; 8043/18521) CLL patients diagnosed during the same time period when mantle cell lymphoma was not yet diagnosed.[29]

In one Spanish study of 85 patients with overt mantle cell lymphoma, 2 (2.4%) patients with overt mantle cell lymphoma were identified that had first degree relatives with another lymphoproliferative disorder.[30] A third overt mantle cell lymphoma patient was reported in the same publication with familial lymphoproliferative neoplasms.[30] One of those 3 patients was diagnosed as mantle cell lymphoma after re-review of previous pathology, with a previous diagnosis of chronic lymphocytic leukemia.[30]

In another study of 109 patients with hematologic malignancies, one case of overt mantle cell lymphoma among 7 examined cases of non-Hodgkin lymphomas was identified to harbor a 15 bp deletion in the CHEK2 gene both in the overt tumor sample and in the germline.[31] Similarly, a heterozygous germline abnormality in the ATM gene was found in 1 of 4 normal tissue samples associated with 4 overt MCL tumor specimens in one study;[32] in a recent whole genome sequencing study of overt mantle cell lymphoma tumor and normal specimens, germline mutations in ATM and CHEK2 genes were reported in 7 and 2 cases, respectively.[28] A personal history of cancer other than mantle cell lymphoma or a family history of cancer was unavailable for these cases.[28][31][32]

Notably, the germline basis of familial mantle cell lymphoma was recently described in one Chinese patient with maternally inherited Lynch syndrome (with co-segregation of a MLH1 variant), paternal history of a diffuse large B-cell lymphoma in the father, and follicular lymphoma in one sibling.[33] The index patient with overt mantle cell lymphoma also developed a colonic adenocarcinoma due to mismatch repair defects.[33]
